Give me a tabรธรธ romance and Iโll eat it up, but you add in an unhinged possessive sociopathic MMC, a chase scene through the woods, & some sรธmnรธ and I will be salivating.
"๐๐ฐ ๐ธ๐ฆ๐ต, ๐ด๐ฐ ๐ง๐ถ๐ค๐ฌ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฎ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ, ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐ด๐ฉ๐ฆ'๐ด ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ข๐ธ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ช๐ต."
You gave me a possessive mute MMC and a kinky FMC both with childhood traumas and to top it off they become foster siblings. Instant adoration. They have this instant comfortability around one another and the whole world wants to tear them apart. These fractured characters are trapped in a universe all of their own creation, where everything is silent when they have each other, everything is okay and beautiful, until the world outside becomes too loud to ignore.
Leigh, miss girl, I donโt know what substances you infused in this book, but I ๐ค๐ฐ๐ถ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต put it down! I felt more love and sympathy for the morally black character than anyone else. You also managed to make a villain out of their mother, my god she was the WORST.

๐ท๏ธแฐแฉแชแฉแแผI: Iโve known since the moment I saw Olivia that I wanted her smiles, her laugh, her everything. Sheโs mineโฆ but tsk tsk she betrayed me. Now she must pay before we can be together I will have my revenge.

๐ฯโฮนฮฝฮนฮฑ: I think I may be sick. The thoughts I have about my brother, foster or not, are wrong arenโt they? My sexual fantasies are wild enough, but I canโt help but wonder how he feels, tastes, how rough he would beโฆ one time canโt hurt or could it?

โผ๏ธThis is book is absolutely worth a read. That being said itโs tabรธรธ and touches on dark themes, if you are hoping for a fluffy bunny romanceโฆ. THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. However, if you have a dark and twisted soul that dances in the moonlight, I think this will be right up your alley you gorgeous depraved goddess.

I loved this book. I ate it up in one sitting, unable to put it down, eager to see what crazy thing Malachi would do next. I rated this book 4.75/5 stars because I felt that it was very well done. I was definitely not ready for it to end and wanted more and more of the story and the characters.
I felt the plot was well organized and paced nicely so it didn't feel like anything was dragging, and it didn't feel like things were moving too fast. I felt that the characters were well-described so I knew their personalities and their intentions well.
I loved how depraved and insane the MMC was, he had me on the edge of my seat wanting more of him as the pages went. I loved how intense, protective, and possessive he was of the FMC. I felt like the sign language and mute nature were a great addition to the story that you typically don't get to see with this type of storyline. I loved that the FMC was so innocent and naรฏve with her brother, but on some level, she was just as depraved as he was with her desires, and he was willing to fulfill every one of her fantasies.
I highly recommend this book, after having read Haunting Adeline and loving it, I was told by others that "Zade walked so Malachi could run." And even though the stories are very different, I do feel like the story lived up to the hype. I enjoyed it very much and can't wait to read more from this author.

Listen I donโt even know. This is really not for everyone and I even had to skim read a part because that was a little to much for me, but other than that this was good. I thought the dynamic was interesting and not something I usually read. The stalker didnโt happen until like the second half of the book which I wasnโt expecting. Honestly if you donโt read dark romance do not read this and if you want to venture into dark romance donโt start with this. The list of content warnings at the beginning gagged me because spider play. I just reread the content warnings and I must of skipped past the warning of what I skim read( but itโs because that was her โdadโ). The writing also wasnโt the greatest either.

This was an interesting read. I tend to read books without knowing anything about them besides what genre they fall under even though I don't know about all of them. When I realized it was about two people who were adopted by the same people I thought oh ok I can work with this since they don't see it that way but throughout the whole book it contradicted between Oh you are my sibling to Oh I don't see you that way so that made it a hint uncomfortable at times but I get that's a trope that a lot of people are into. It doesn't bother me but it also doesn't do anything for me. The spice was fantastic and quite dark. I felt for the MMC and my heart broke for him and the MFC. Overall I enjoyed this book. I don't know if I will go back and ever read it again but it was enjoyable
